<P>Yes, I'm <i>[http://groups.google.com/groups?as_ugroup=comp.lang.perl.misc&as_uauthors=Bart%20Lateur|that guy]</i> from &lt;comp.lang.perl.misc>. So now you know. Happy?
<P>According to Google Groups Stats, I'm the [http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.perl.misc/about|7th most active poster of all time]. That's still my old email address, BTW, I've switched provider several years ago. In fact, if you actually [http://groups.google.com/groups?as_ugroup=comp.lang.perl.misc&as_uauthors=Bart%20Lateur|do an advanced search for my name], Google Groups says it found about 7300 posts by me &mdash; higher than their listed top poster! But as I'm not the only one changing email address now and then, the other people's count may be quite a bit higher, too. So I'll not jump to conclusions.

<p><h2>CPAN</h2>
I've got a [http://search.cpan.org/~bartl/|CPAN directory], and I started with uploading stuff. A small step at first, but it'll grow, eventually.

I became the 192'nd saint on Friday May 16 2003, between 12:30 and 15:00 GMT. Actually I did that 6 times in a row &mdash; that's why it took so long...
<P>192 is a quite a nice number actually, for geeks anyway: 192 == 3*64 :) (That's 3/4 of 256 for the slow ones out there ;)
<P>My current XP oriented goal is to stick around on the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Answer_to_Life%2C_the_Universe%2C_and_Everything|42]nd [id://3559|position], something that's been succeeding pretty well over the last several months, until [ysth] overtook me, that is... on my birthday, no less. And less than a week later, [brian_d_foy] speeded past me... looks like I'll not get back to position 42 for a long time, I had got 1000XP to catch up for the next in line. Pooh.
<p><u>Update</u> May 2nd: I'm still at position 43, but it looks like I might be able to get there this month. The window to stay in 42nd position is rather small, though, only 500XP, and [ysth] is coming to catch up with me. Again.
<p><u>Update</u> May 6th: I did it! I'm number 42 again!
